Physical Therapy

What is Physical therapy?
Physical and occupational therapy often share similar or common goals for their clients and offer complementary approaches to intervention. While both therapies address similar goals, the disciplines use different techniques, theories, and approaches to treat clients. Treatment typically includes therapeutic exercise, cardiovascular endurance and training, and training in activities of daily living (American Physical Therapy Association, 1999). As with occupational therapy, in the pediatric setting PT provides treatment through the use of play.  

Physical therapy intervention addresses joint function, muscle strength, mobility and endurance. Physical therapists address gross motor skills that involve the large muscles of the body and help to improve children’s posture, gait, and overall body awareness.  
What needs do Physical therapy address?
  • Developmental Activities
  • Strengthen
  • Movement and mobility
  • Tone management
  • Motor learning
  • Balance and coordination
  • Recreation, play, and leisure
  • Equipment design, fabrication, and fitting
  • Orthotics and prosthetics
Why should i pick Crossway for my Physical therapy needs?
We have revolutionized the way the children receive treatment. We believe in individualized treatments, as well as opportunities to participate in peer/group sessions, practice the generalization of skills coping, and sensory integration.
At Crossway, we strive to use contemporary therapies to accommodate the changing needs within the therapy population. As apart of our Contemporary Therapies we use Hocoma's ArmeoBoom, Constraint Induced Movement Therapy, Myofascial Release, Kinesio Taping, and the Saebo.
